Peak came at age 23 with a French Open quarterfinal

Her best Grand Slam result was a quarterfinal at the 1982 French Open, achieved at age 23. That was the only time she reached the last eight, making it the clear high point of her 15-tournament Slam career.

Best stretch was 1980-1982

All three of her strongest seasons fell in a row: R16 at the 1980 US Open, R16 at the 1981 French Open, and the 1982 quarterfinal. Across those years she also added two R64 finishes and two R32 finishes, showing a sustained mid-career rise.

She never advanced beyond the first round after 1982

From 1983 through 1984, every Slam result was R128 except one R64 at the 1983 French Open. That means her final five Slam appearances produced no result better than the second round.

French Open was her most productive major

Her French Open results include the quarterfinal, two R16s, one R64, and one R128. By contrast, Wimbledon and the US Open each topped out at R32, so Paris was clearly her deepest and most consistent venue.

Career was short but efficient in match terms

She played 15 Grand Slam tournaments and 33 matches, finishing 18-15 for a 55% win rate. That combination of a positive record and a single quarterfinal suggests a compact career with several competitive runs rather than long-volume participation.
